Ghost

There used to live a bat in a ramshackle house in front of me but since the house has been renovated I miss him. I guess he didn't like to be bothered by human. Sometimes I do think his ghost is still flying his nightly jaunts in my backyard...
This is not exactly what I had in mind. I made a birdhouse into a lamp/ghostbathouse and painted the bat hanging under the house with glow-in-the-dark paint so that when the light is turned off you can still see a 'ghost' glowing. But nothing glowed after I took a picture. I couldn't get the glow-in-the-dark effect on camera :(
So I photoshopped my bat a bit et voilà.

Smitten

I had to look up the word "smitten" in my dictionary and it gave different kind of definitions. I found the paraphrase -Affected by something overwhelming- the most beautiful one. The picture is based on a reoccurrent dream I was having when I was 7 or 8 years old. In that dream I always used to walk in a dim wood when I suddenly saw an owl in a tree and at that moment I felt a painful thrust in my back as I was struck by a flash of lightning. I still don't know wat it was telling me but I've been smitten by it for years.

Trouble

Siamese twins are separated
They couldn't stand themselves no more
They hesitated for a long time
They've had their doubts but now they're sure
They are sure

Summer was the cause of so much trouble
in the fall they didn't really talk no more
in the wintertime they thought their frozen hearts
would certainly melt in the springtime
But of course.
There wasn't warmth enough for both
For both

Quiet!!!!

The residence above me has been squatted lately by someone I call 'The Cowboy Boot'. All day he's walking in circles above my head and it's really getting on my nerves! It's like hearing space scream around me all the time and I can do nothing to make it stop...
